How to dye my hair an unnatural color
It made me
Totally Happy 
"I love my purple hair!"
How I did it: I had been putting it off for years - I was looking for a new job, and I knew showing up with normal looking hair would probably help me during an interview. So finally, after landing the new job, I could approach my hairdresser about adding some purple.
She bleached out a hair amount of hair, including the underside of my bangs and large sections on either side of my head, but with a layer of my natural hair over it, so it wasn't TOO obvious. She blended two different purples and applied it. I LOVE IT.
Lessons & tips: This was the first time I'd ever had my hair professionally dyed, and I can't recommend it enough. No worries about burning my scalp, or making a mess, or anything.
